#their relationship up to this point has been sporadic and frequently contentious but Peter seems to get that Kaine is no pushover

#Marvel#Marvel comics#Marvel 616#Amazing Spider-Man#Amazing Spider-Man vol. 1#Amazing Spider-Man 1963#Tarantula#Kaine#Kaine Parker#Spider-Man#Peter Parker#Jackal#Miles Warren#jackal encounter me in the trench this is not a suggestion 🔪🔪🔪#anyway two things of note here:#first I sincerely appreciate that Peter understands Kaine enough to know that the latter is extremely adverse to being used#their relationship up to this point has been sporadic and frequently contentious but Peter seems to get that Kaine is no pushover#especially when it comes to guarding against being taken advantage of (again RIP)#Secondly that spider vs. man comment…#idk I just find it interesting considering that the whole Clone Saga overlapped with/came shortly after that period#where Peter was actively trying to shed his humanity and be only “the spider” to avoid the intense emotional pain he was going through#Naturally Peter got out of the funk (just in time to be inundated by clones at least one of whom would have gladly taken over for Peter#as a “man” if given the chance) but Kaine in particular has repeatedly been held up as a reflection of Peter#or who Peter could become if he just embraced a more violent approach to life#and yeah in total I think that comment just makes me sad#because Kaine too would probably concur that for most of his existence he hasn’t been living much as a “man”#either because his humanity was denied to him by the Jackal or denied to himself because he felt unworthy of humanity#anyway gotta love Peter for (in spite of all of this and their history) still maintaining that trademark optimism and reaching out to Kaine
